Deeteereoraeteeng Part 2

I think I discovered the reason behind my increasingly-terrible spelling: short messages! Over the past two years I have really taken up Instant Messaging and SMSing. And within these two mediums I will use all sorts of abbreviations like "2" to mean "two" and "too", and also "its" to mean both "its" and "it's".

No wonder my spelling got worse - my mind is getting lax! I really can't help it because each SMS is limited to 140 characters, but I think I'll use more proper spelling when chatting online.
